Privacy Policy
HappyPDF processes your files in your web browser. When you use our tools, your files are not uploaded to our servers. Merging, splitting, compressing and the other tools all run on your own device.
Exceptions
- HTML to PDF with a web address: our server downloads that public page (and its images) for you. The content is not stored.
- OCR: the first time you use a language, your browser downloads its free recognition model from a public CDN (jsDelivr). Your document is not sent anywhere.
What we collect
- Anonymous usage counts: which tool was used and how many files were processed. File names and contents are not collected.
- Standard web server logs (IP address, browser type), kept for security and removed periodically.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics (through Google Tag Manager) to understand how many people visit and which tools are popular. Google may set cookies and receives information such as the pages you visit, your approximate location and your browser type. When you finish using a tool we record only the tool name and the number of files. File names and contents are never sent. See how Google uses this data.
Cookies
We store your theme preference (light/dark) in your browser.
Advertising
HappyPDF is free because it shows ads from our advertising partner, Adsterra. Adsterra and the advertisers it works with may use cookies and similar technologies, and receive information such as your IP address, browser type and the page you visited, to show and measure ads. Their use of this data is covered by Adsterra’s privacy policy.
We never send your documents to advertisers or to our server. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, or use an ad blocker.
